I've seen Gary, and this isn't him. :-) At least not the one of Lightsphere fame.

Pretty good, but I dunno yet. Let's give it a little time to hear from some of the linquists of TPF and their rapier wits. (Carefull, now, with the rules).

I'm not sure it looks enough like him. Plus, if YOU were Mr. Hanson Fong, would YOU go running around like that in front of a camera? I dunno.

I think if he were the real one he'd have removed the label from the milk jug.

That is definitely not Gary Fong. Gary Fong does not drink Fong Lite, but drinks only Asahi.
By the way, did you see the jugs on that guy ?

No, if he were the real one he'd claim that keeping the label on there doubles the output of your flash.

Is this a ...

DairySphere
CowBell
LightMoo II
Lightsphere III-Milky
